Hi. Canon. It is difficult to answer you as I do not know if you have a sympathetic boss. Some employers these days are getting the message and make allowances. The thing to do at the moment is to stay at home and rest. You sound very worried and, without knowing the circumstances, I feel for you. Your security is at risk and that in itself is not conducive to helping anxiety. Please try and take things as they come. You may be anticipating about something that will never happen. Rest up for a while and try and think more clearly about your situation. I am not, for one moment, trivialising your problem, but getting all worked up as you are will not help. Can you talk to anyone about this. Friend, family? Are you on meds? If not you may need temporary help. Sorry not to be more helpful but I really feel you should rest up for a while. Best wishes. jonathan.

Oh Canon, just 1 more week till your appointment , you must go to it and tell them exactly what you confide in us. I know you don't expect a miracle cure but you do expect help. Do they know about your up coming therapy at work? Then they will know you re trying your best to get well. Bloody stupid when you need proof but have you got an appointment letter? Make them aware that you are serious and things are moving forward. All this will help to keep your job even if you have to go on the sick for a while to start to feel better. I really hope you start to feel a bit better soon, love and hugs x Ella x

Hi, I'm not sure what you were sent home with, but if its because of your anxiety, your best bet is to stick at working. I practically begged my doctor to give me a sick note and he said I shouldn't stay out of work cuz my mind will get use to it. The longer your out of work the harder it is to go back x

Hi Canon, you can do it but I know how difficult it is I have just had the worst week ever, my anxiety seems to be ever changing times, all this week on a morning really struggled to even set off for work. It doesnt help that I work in a hospital environment which is making things worse, but finding it hard to find another job.

On the positive I acknowledge what I have achieved that day and sometimes I may think I cant stay all day but then when I have done another hour its another step nearer to teatime. Even though it isnt the right working environment I have around me supportive colleagues.

Small steps, take care xx
